Solar for Business
It’s Just Good Business Sense.
Rebates, rebates, rebates.
The Business Benefits of Solar Energy
With clear returns on investment, energy security, protection from inflation, and customizable options to suit your needs, solar has never made more sense.
Low maintenance
Once they’re installed, solar power systems require very little maintenance.
Reduce your Carbon Footprint
Feel good about your operations and get tax exemptions for your initiative in using alternative energy.
Protection from Inflation
Energy rates keep rising. Ensure yourself against them now for as long as the sun shines.
Reduce Operational Costs
Reduce or even eliminate your electrical bills depending on how green you choose to go.
Do you operate in remote areas?
If the standard energy source options won’t or can’t work for you, solar is an easy choice. It’s sustainable, renewable, stable energy that can be scaled to power as much or as little as you need and can be installed virtually anywhere.
Get a 30% Tax Credit
If you go solar, you’re eligible for the Clean Technology Investment Tax Credit (ITC) from the Canadian Government, which gives you 30% back on solar installations and battery storage solutions, so long as you own the solar project and you claim the credit in the same tax year it’s installed. That means you get a refundable tax rebate up to 30% of the capital cost base.
Save Big with BC Hydro Rebates
Get Up to $50,000 in Rebates
Your commercial property could be eligible for $25,000 from the BC Hydro Solar Panel Rebate and $25,000 from the BC Hydro Solar Battery Rebate.
You’re Exempt from Paying BC’s 7% PST
BC waives Provincial Sales Tax (PST) on all solar installations as part of the Alternative Energy Sources PST Exemption. So you don’t have to pay provincial sales tax on your inverters, wiring, or anything else that enables your solar power, except batteries.
Deduct 100% of the Cost
The Capital Cost Allowance (CCA) under section 43.2 of the Income Tax Regulation allows for businesses in BC that meet the income profit requirements to deduct 100% of the total cost of their solar assets in the first year of purchase.
